"Spring Break" is the eighteenth episode of the sixth season of the American sitcom Modern Family, and the series' 138th episode overall. It originally aired on March 25, 2015. The episode was written by Paul Corrigan & Brad Walsh, and directed by Gail Mancuso.

In the episode, Alex so anxiously checks her e-mails for her college acceptance, that Claire sends her to an outdoor music festival with Haley. Phil is hurt when Luke begins to outperform him in every activity they practice together. When Mitchell decides that Lily needs to be "rescued" from camp, Jay goes with him so he can smoke. Gloria accompanies Cameron to his school's talent show, where Cameron is competing with teacher Senor Kaplan about which of them will perform "Memories".

"Spring Break" received positive reviews from the critics.

It is Spring Break and Alex (Ariel Winter) is busy checking her e-mails to see if Harvard have accepted her. Under Claire's (Julie Bowen) instructions, Alex goes with Haley (Sarah Hyland) to a Music Festival so she can relax a little and take her mind away from colleges. After Haley gets Alex drunk, Haley is on the phone with Claire learning that Alex did not get accepted to Harvard and she understands why Alex behaves so weird outside the fact that she is also drunk. Haley talks to Alex, and manages to convince her to put things to perspective. Returning home, Alex looks better and admits that Haley made her proud of herself while heading to her room rejecting Claire's help.

Phil (Ty Burrell) decides to spend time with his son. However, Luke (Nolan Gould) begins to outperform his dad in every activity they practice together, like playing the banjo and trampolining. When Claire gets excited about how fast Luke learn to play the banjo and how good he is at trampolining, Phil's feelings get hurt. Later on, Phil finds a bra under Luke's pillow and berates him as he is still "a kid who lives under his Dad's roof, and should follow his rules". While Phil is yelling at Luke, an accident with the banjo injures Luke in the eye, and Phil has to escort him to the hospital. Phil apologizes for his behavior, which Luke accepts and reveals that the bra actually belongs to him because he has trouble un-doing it on girls and he wants to practice. When a nurse comes to see Luke, he takes the opportunity to un-do her bra.
